EVA SCHLEGEL
Falling up
Opening: October 22, 2026, 6 PM
at Kunsthaus Graz, Space01
Lendkai 1
8020 Graz, Austria
Duration: October 23, 2026 – March 29, 2027
curated by Katia Huemer
A loss of orientation in the face of far-reaching global crises is one of the defining experiences of our time. The exhibition Falling up takes up this feeling and contrasts it with a different perspective. The paradoxical title – ‘falling upwards’ – challenges the laws of gravity and opens up the possibility of understanding this loss of orientation not solely as a threat, but also as a shift in perspective.
